Are you an experienced Bus & Coach, PSV, or Heavy Vehicle professional looking to move into training?

Do you want to step away from the tools and into a rewarding role where you can support apprentices, work closely with a major employer partner, and help develop the next generation of Bus & Coach technicians?

This is a fantastic opportunity to join one of the UK's most recognised Automotive apprenticeship providers in a permanent role focused on Bus & Coach Mech/Elec delivery. This role is ideal for someone with strong industry knowledge who wants to move into education, pass on their skills, and build a long-term career in training.

As a PSV Instructor, you'll deliver Bus & Coach Mech/Elec apprenticeship training through a mixture of classroom-based theory and practical workshop delivery. You'll support learners with modern vehicle systems, diagnostics, safety standards, SRS, electrical integration, and the technical knowledge required to succeed within the Bus & Coach industry.

The ideal candidate will have a strong Bus & Coach or PSV background with recent industry experience. Candidates from a Heavy Vehicle background may also be considered if they have strong electrical knowledge and the ability to adapt to Bus & Coach delivery. Teaching experience is desirable but not essential, as full support towards a Level 3 AET qualification can be provided.
